  • Factors affecting erythrocyte transaminase activity in preschool children

    Creator:
    Phuong, Dang Thi Cuc
    Abstract:
    Erythrocyte glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (EGPT) and glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (EGOT) activities reflect vitamin B₆ status in humans (Baysal, Johnson, and Linkswiler, 1966). Pyridoxal phosphate (PALPO), an active form of vitamin B₆, serves as the coenzyme for these transaminases. Compared to other methods of vitamin B₆ assessment, transaminase measurement has the advantage of...

  • Comparison of two methods for measuring erythrocyte aspartate aminotransferase activity in humans

    Creator:
    Iwakiri, Yasuko
    Abstract:
    We compared a kinetic method (KM) and a colorimetric method (CM) for measuring erythrocyte aspartate aminotransferase (EAST) activity. Twenty-three healthy college students including 7 men and 16 women, aged from 22 to 40 years, participated in this study. Vitamin B-6 status was assessed by EAST activity coefficient (EAST-AC), the ratio...

  • The effect of pyridoxine supplementation on erythrocyte aminotransferase activity in man

    Creator:
    Wang, Ann-gau Nancy
    Abstract:
    The effect of pyridoxine (PN) supplementation on the activities of erythrocyte alanine aminotransferase (EAlaAT) and aspartate aminotransferase (EAspAT) was observed in five men, aged 22 to 25 years. The subjects received a constant diet containing 1.34 mg of vitamin B-6 Monday through Friday of each week during this five-week study....
